Thanks to @crypto.piotr for telling me about this post.

AI is simply put a very powerful tool- like fire or the wheel or the Uranium Atom. How man uses it is the big question?

Who will be replaced? Well, the way tech is progressing- more than half of the work force. But NOT Tomorrow or the Next month. Maybe 30-40 years down the line. Automation has already begun but the scope is pretty limited and 3-4 Billion people are a lot to replace.

The exponential increase in tech can end many problems and bottlenecks which throttle the progress of many regions of the world, so more production at less cost can sustain a UBI. How this pans out is anybody's guess.

For older people like me- I am already being outdated from my profession slowly but surely. Looking for new avenues after taking a hard look at reality is probably the only way to stay on top of this tech- wave.
